AIA CA | In Practice: Top 10 Ways to Reduce Concrete’s Carbon Footprint (1 LU | HSW)

Sustainable concrete designs leverage optimized elements that work towards open, well-lit spaces that improve the physical, emotional and social well-being of occupants (Health). Such practices also encourage the use of higher quality materials, with improvements to durability and resiliency (Safety). Lastly, sustainable concrete is achievable with negligible impact to cost while benefiting the environment (Welfare). This webinar will cover the basics of embodied carbon of concrete showing how to evaluate the immediate steps that can be taken to reduce carbon footprint when specifying concrete and explain how to prioritize design strategies to get the greatest reductions in carbon footprint using current technologies and design tools. Innovative technologies that result in zero carbon concrete in the future will be showcased in addition to a live question and answer for the audience.
